What size tire will fill up the wheel wells without rubbing on my 86 K10?

Looking for the tallest tire that will not rub too bad to fill up the wheel wells as much as possible. Not worried about width, moreso the height. Is 33x10.50 my best option?

Id say no to 33's, they didnt fit on my K5 without a lift so I went with 35's, ended up doing a 4" spring lift with a 1" body lift.

Nice truck! I have one like it, but stepside (k10 with no lift). I have researched this and am pretty sure that 33x10.50 will fit without rubbing. I'm currently running 31's and would like to go a little bigger. Another option is 32x11.00, however, that size is getting harder to find.
